Fundraiser for United Fund

November 5, 2013

Linda Clark, secretary for the Upper Hancock United Fund, shows off the all-Steelers cooler to be part of a fundraiser drawing by the United Fund. Items include six drinking glasses, a water bottle, a tablecloth, a car flag, a backpack and a trash can. Tickets are $1 each, and the drawing will be held Dec. 10 at the Lynn Murray Memorial Library in Chester. The United Fund raises money annually for nine member organizations: Chester/Newell FISH, Chester City Parks, Hancock County Senior Services, Hancock County 4-H, Hancock County Special Olympics, Lynn Murray Memorial Library, American Red Cross, Ohio Valley Home Health and the East Liverpool YMCA. In addition to the Steelers drawing, the United Fund holds a “Mile of Quarters” campaign at New Manchester and Allision Elementary schools and an annual fall mail campaign. -- Stephen Huba
